The Norns dwell at Urðarbrunnr beneath the World Tree, drawing its sacred waters each day to nourish Yggdrasil's roots and carving the runes that fix the fates of gods and mortals.
Each day the Aesir ride across Bifrost to hold their court at Urðarbrunnr beneath the World Tree, where they judge and deliberate at the holiest seat in Asgard.
Yggdrasil's first root reaches to Urðarbrunnr in Asgard, where the Norns dwell and tend the tree by pouring the well's sacred waters over its roots, as described in the Prose Edda.
